Oh, its happening!

 I really should be working.  I have a massive stack of stuff to do, but gold paint has distracted me.  I couldn't stop thinking about it, so I just decided to do a test wall.  I'm sure a lot of folks aren't going to be loving this crazy wall like I do, but that is what design is all about. So here is the test wall. (PS- I haven't even finished with the second coat of the base color yet. I'm impatient. Just had to see.)

I now need to finish painting the room white at some point, and then I will get back to the gold squiggles. Its a big wall, but this little section went pretty quick.

Oh, and here is an update on the rest of Hotmess land.  I finally switched out the Maskros to the dining room and stole the chandelier from my kitchen for this room.  Saturday was a day of musical chandeliers.  I like this one for the sitting area.  My goal for this crazy mess is going to be an artsy-glam mix...


More later gators.

Ok, you're making me majorly jealous with that gold squiggle wall :) So I now might have to find a place to do something equally as glamorous... Way to go Ms Creative!

I absolutely LOVE it. Can't wait to see the whole thing. It's perfect! Spoken by a girl who has gold zebra print wallpaper in the powder room.....

I'm really liking this! Is that a paint pen you're using? Such a quick, cheap and easy alternative to wallpaper :)

Lindy said...

By the way, meant to tell you I checked out your "overlays" and am seriously obsessed and trying to find where I am going to use them. Have been snapping up photos of furniture pieces that I want to re-create! Thank you!

Very pretty, am tempted to try that in silver. The pineapple lamp is a super cool touch! I particularly love those two white lamps in the first picture, I've seen them before but can't find them for sale anywhere, where did you find them? (If it's not a secret of sorts!) Thanks.
